Were you always like this?
No, I used to whole and complete.
But how did you break?
Oh, like many fragile things,
I was dropped and forgotten,
No love or compassion can
Fix scars that will never heal.
But I was broken once too you know,
And my scars have disappeared.
No, no, you misunderstand
You were just mistreated.
When you are broken,
You will never be whole again.
Never?
Never,
That is why you must take heed,
Our souls are glass.

I liked the sense of conversation in this poem, it could be between two people, or for me it feels as if a past self is talking to the present self that is older and has, regretfully not learned from its mistakes because it has made them again, but worse this time.
I loved the opening line because it is straight to the point and makes the reader want to continue.

A wonderful read,
Dom

Very emotional and with great sense of meaning in between every verse.

I love the simplicity in this, but also how creatively simple it is. That is, sometimes, something very hard to achieve.

I really like this, it's interesting, and relatable, and familiar. The words work well together, without making it over-used and unoriginal.

Great write, I like it.

*hugs*
